RFC: deprecated functions calling deprecated functions

- Subject: RFC: deprecated functions calling deprecated functions
So, a testcase like this:
extern void foo() __attribute__((deprecated));
extern void bar() __attribute__((deprecated));
void foo() {}
void bar()
{
foo();
}
Should we warn on the invocation of foo() since it's also being called
from within a deprecated function? We are today, but I've gotten a
request for that to not warn. This seems reasonable, for example, if you
deprecate an entire API or something, but still need to compile the library.
Thoughts?
